Post-track-day inspection + parts orders
Post track day inspection
- Oil in catch can is probably like 1/2 qt. So I’m not actually burning a ton. No notable leaks up on the lift.
- Installed a new hub in LR. Used an MPI hub which is $250 vs $400 for the skf x trackers. Test drive verified the noise is gone. I have a second for the other rear when it goes.
- PS pump inspection shows there is a leak. I ordered a turn one hp2 unit to replace
- Ordered parts to do the harmonic balancer. It wobbles a little bit. Not critical, but I should take care of it soon.
- Installed new plugs, wires, and boots. The old ones looked badly eroded, but all a nice gray.
- Removed the air system hoses to give me a bit more room to work
- Removed the side air dam. There is a LG motorsport video out there where he talks about them only existing for fuel economy. They create lift. I care more about lift than fuel economy
- Changed the coolant out for distilled water and some water wetter. Hopefully that will bring down my temps a bit.
I also ordered a set of front cooling ducts that turn your fog light holes into much more useful air intakes.
